I’m adding a lot of new music to my iTunes tonight. Most of it came from Spencer, tracks he played on the boat while we were out last weekend. I’m listening through Phrazes for the Young now. Casablanca’s voice is really compelling for me. I’ve always loved the Strokes and this album is great as well.
One of the albums I just added is Drake’s So Far Gone. I have literally no idea about Drake. I’ve heard his name and know people like him. I saw it and thought I’d give it a try. While I haven’t listened to it yet, the album cover is beautiful, isn’t it? Very nice use of type. It’s good to see a hip-hop/pop artist choosing to go graphic/typographical instead of using a photo. Classy, Drake, very classy. Let’s hope the album is as good.
